  • Qutb Minar: Religion and Power in 13Th-Century India Professor Munis Faruqui (Department of South and Southeast Asian Studies, UC Berkeley)
    The Making of a Modern Myth Qutb Minar: Religion and Power in 13th-Century India Professor Munis Faruqui (Department of South and Southeast Asian Studies, UC Berkeley) I. Introduction India is the world’s largest democracy, and has the world’s second largest population of Muslims. Over the last few decades, deep religious divisions have appeared between the Hindu majority and the Muslim minority, who comprise 12–15 percent of the population. Extremists in either community have stoked violent religious conflict in ways that will be discussed shortly. Most of the violence in recent history has occurred in the form of pogroms. Most of the victims are Muslims. There are at least two critical threads that link contemporary anti-Muslim violence: first, a rising tide of Hindu nationalism. Second, much of the violence has been continuously stoked by rhetoricians’ use of an exaggerated and distorted history of endless conflict between these two groups—especially during the period when Muslim political authorities dominated northern India (c. 1200–1750). According to Hindu nationalists, the experience under the Muslims was oppressive, the Muslim rulers tyrannical, Hindu temples were destroyed, and so on. So the current anti- Muslim pogroms are payback, as the more extreme elements among the Hindu nationalists openly assert: attacking Muslims today is thus justified for what happened 500, 600, or 700 years ago. Like many groups elsewhere in the world, Hindu nationalists invoke history. Irish Republicanism invokes battles that happened in 1690 and so on. Groups in the Balkans are another example: Serbs, Croats, and Bosniacs have their own histories, and the 1389 battle of Kosovo becomes a central rallying cry for Serbian nationalism.

Introduction The Sultanate of Delhi, said to have been formally founded by Qutb-ud-din Aibak, one of the Viceroys of Muhammad Ghori. It is known as the Sultanate of Delhi because during the greater part of the Sultanate, its capital was Delhi. The Sultanate of Delhi (1206–1526) had five ruling dynasties viz., 1) The Slave dynasty (1206-1290), 2) The Khilji Dynasty (1290–1320) 3), The Tughlaq Dynasty (1320–1414), 4) The Sayyad Dynasty (1414–1451) and 5) The Lodi dynasty (1451–1526). The first dynasty of the Sultanate has been designated by various historians as ‘The Slave’, ‘The Early Turk’, ‘The Mamluk’ and ‘The Ilbari’ 2. Slave/Mamluk Dynasty 2.1. Qutb-ud-din Aibak (1206 – 1210) Qutb-ud-din Aibak was the founder of the Slave/Mamluk dynasty. He was the Turk of the Aibak tribe. In his childhood he was first purchased by a kind hearted Qazi of Nishapur as Slave. He received education in Islamic theory and swordmanship along with the son of his master. When Qazi died, he was sold by his son to a merchant who took him to Ghazni where he was purchased by Muhammad Ghori.

A. Baloch) From 750 to 1500, three phases are discernible in the political history of these regions. During the first phase, from the mid-eighth until the end of the tenth century, Sind, Baluchis- tan and Multan – with the exception of the interlude of pro-Fatimid ascendency in Mul- tan during the last quarter of the tenth century – all remained politically linked with the cAbbasid caliphate of Baghdad. (Kashmir was ruled, from the eighth century onwards, by the local, independent, originally non-Muslim dynasties, which had increasing political contacts with the Muslim rulers of Sind and Khurasan.) During the second phase – the eleventh and twelfth centuries – all these regions came within the sphere of influence of the powers based in Ghazna and Ghur. During the third phase –from the thirteenth to the early sixteenth century – they partly became dominions of the Sultanate of Delhi, which was in itself an extension into the subcontinent of the Central Asian power base.

  • Punjab Under the Maumluk Dynasty (1206-1290)
    RESEARCH PAPER History Volume : 3 | Issue : 11 | Nov 2013 | ISSN - 2249-555X Punjab Under the Maumluk Dynasty (1206-1290) KEYWORDS sultanate period, Punjab, Qutab-ud-Din Aibak, Mamluk Dynasty Pankaj Dhanger Research Scholar, Department of History, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra-136119 ABSTRACT During the sultanate period, the Punjab enjoyed a position of distinct prestige and status politically. Whenev- er there was a revolt in Delhi, Punjab in one form or another was invariably associated with it. Qutab-ud-Din Aibak, realizing the strategic position and political importance of Punjab, shifted his capital from Delhi to Lahore. The Ghori nobles of the Punjab placed Aram Shah on the throne. But Iltutmish wrested the throne from him. That was the first revolt in which the Punjab suffered a virtual defeat. To save Sultanate specially Punjab, Iltutmish followed, perhaps, a deliberate policy by allowing his neighbors to weaken one another and intervening-as he did on Qubacha’s behalf against Jalal-ud-Din Mangbarni only when it was absolutely necessary, he was then able to eliminate these competitors one by one. Balban, who after Iltutmish was the most powerful Sultan in the line of the Mamluk Dynasty, started his career in Punjab. When Muhammad Ghori was murdered, Quatab-ud-din Ai- the ruler of the provinces of Sindh and Multan and he had bak was able to move from Delhi to Lahore and to take up his further extended his kingdom to include Bhatinda, Ghurham quarters as ruler there on 26 June 1206. and Sarusti.

The popula- tion lived mainly in the countryside, where there were scattered estates with the fortified kushks (castles) of major and minor dihqan¯ (land-owner)-suzerains and adjacent settle- ments. The ancient towns had either shrunk in size (Samarkand, Merv, Termez, Balkh) or been abandoned. The new towns were few in number, and small (Panjikent). Warfare was rife in the seventh and eighth centuries and, as a consequence, there was a general decline in building activity. This situation only changed in the ninth century, when the sphere of influence of the caliphate finally took in the countries of Central Asia and Islam became solidly established.

    3 THE DELHI SULTANS n Chapter 2 we saw that regions like the Kaveri delta I became the centre of large kingdoms. Did you notice that there was no mention of a kingdom with Delhi as its capital? That was because Delhi became an important city only in the twelfth century. Take a look at Table 1. Delhi first became the capital of a kingdom under the Tomara Rajputs, who were defeated in the middle of the twelfth century by the Map 1 Chauhans (also referred to as Chahamanas) of Ajmer. Selected Sultanate It was under the Tomaras and Chauhans that Delhi cities of Delhi, thirteenth-fourteenth became an important commercial centre. Many rich centuries. Jaina merchants lived in the city and constructed several temples. Coins minted here, called dehliwal, had a wide circulation. The transformation of Delhi into a capital that controlled vast areas of the subcontinent started with the foundation of the Delhi Sultanate in the beginning of the thirteenth century. Take a look at Table 1 again and identify the five dynasties that together made the Delhi Sultanate. The Delhi Sultans built many cities in the area that we now - know as Delhi.

ALIGARH (INDIA). 19 8 7 T3617 A B S T R A C T The Delhi Sultans had assimilated, accepted and rejected in its military organisation the Central Asian and Rajput traditions of warfare. These two diverse military organisations had deep impact on the Indian army during the 13th and 14th centuries. It was therefore deemed necessary to incorporate the 'Military Organisation of the Mongols'and the Rajput Traditions of warfare* in the Introduction of this work which enables a better understeisding of the Army Organi- sation of the Delhi Sultans, The MongolJ adopted the Central Asian traditions of warfare which gave emphasis on cavalry and the mobility of troopsib They were a well knit kmilitary force, dlsaijilined and ferocious* All these combined to give them enough success in their military eXi>editions, The Turks established themselves as rulers in India after overcoming their Rajput adversaries whose resistance lasted till mid of 13th century. The incorporation of the Rajputs in the array resulted in the assimilation of Indian modes of warfare of employing elephants and the increase in the number of the infantry corps which was constituted mostly of Indian soldiers. A critical analysis of the Rajput tradition - ii - of warfare has been dealt with in later part of the Introduction. After tho establishment of the Delhi Sultans a seperate unit of administration called the Diwan-i-i^ took over the charge of organising the whole army.

  • HISTORY of INDIA(C.1206-1526) II
    CC-7 : HISTORY OF INDIA(c.1206-1526) II. SULTANATE POLITICAL STRUCTURE (A-1) FOUNDATION, EXPANSION AND CONSOLIDATION OF THE SULTANATE OF DELHI. Muizuddin Mohammad Ghori was the last Turkish conqueror of North India. After his sudden death in 1206 CE there began a tussle for supremacy among his three most important generals-Tajuddin Yalduz, Nasiruddin Qubacha and Qutubuddin Aibak.Yalduz held Karman and Sankuran the route between Afghanistan and upper Sindh. Qubacha was the governor of Multan and Uchch. While Aibak had already been deputed as the viceroy of Mohammad Ghori, the overall commander of the army in India. Though technically a slave the title of Sultan was conferred upon him soon after the death of his master. Qutubuddin Aibak established a Turkish State in India after being acknowledged by the other Turkish officers as the Sultan of India and this ultimately resulted in the foundation of the Delhi Sultanate. Five different dynasties-the Slave, the khalji, the Tughlaq, the Sayyids, the Lodhis are collectively referred to as the Delhi Sultanate. The rulers referred to as Sultans were of Turkish and Afghan origin.Not only they extended their rule over North India (i.e., Malwa and Gujrat), but they also penetrated into Deccan and South India. The chronology of the period of Delhi Sultanate is as follows- Delhi Sultanate Period(c. 1206-1526CE) 1. Slave/Ilbari Dynasty (1206-90 CE) 2. Khalji Dynasty(1290-1320CE) 3. Tughlaq Dynasty(1320-1413CE) 4. Sayyid Dynasty(1414-51 CE) 5. Lodhi Dynasty(1451-1526 CE) The Slave dynasty was also called the Mameluk dynasty.The Arabic word Mameluk means ‘owned’ which was used to distinguish the important Turkish slaves chiefly meant for military service from the lower slaves who were used as domestic labours or artisans.
